2 string G Bass

Hi everyone 

good to see there is a Canadian CBG. I know you can buy full kits for 2 string G-Bass but I do not want a kit I like building my cigar box guitars from scratch. So I was wondering if anyone has plans for a 2 string G-Bass or know where I can order a copy of the plans thanks

I have a spreadsheet that produces a diagram - not to scale - that I use as a plan for each build. The diagram is very customized to the size of the box. It is in metric.  I am currently finishing up a 2 string bass by the way. Message me if this is something you’d like to see. And welcome to your new addiction ;-)
